Sticks & Stones

Maybe I was confused Thinking that there was more I would have to lose Maybe I was afraid Letting go of all Tied to one place I confess, I was a bit selfish Protective of our space I guess maybe I just expected This to go away A house is only sticks and stones That's what I've come to know Some on the go Find peace out on the road But that don't mean that they're alone As we reside On borrowed time The truth I'll hold Was always you that made it home You're what made it home Maybe I always knew That there would come a day We'd have to start anew I thought if I kept it out of mind I'd never have to say goodbye Like out of sight Would make it easy to leave behind I confess, I felt a bit helpless Like it was my problem to save In hindsight, I guess I rejected Things would have to change A house is only sticks and stones That's what I've come to know Some on the go Find peace out on the road But that don't mean that they're alone As we reside On borrowed time The truth I'll hold Was always you that made it home What we have written in memory Doesn't belong to any street I'll keep it safe with me Forever it holds a residence Cul-de-sac home inside my head That's how it'll be for me Cuz now I see that A house is only sticks and stones That's what I've come to know Some on the go Find peace out on the road But that don't mean that they're alone As we reside On borrowed time The truth I'll hold Was always you that made it home You're what made it home Maybe what they say is true There really are some things You're never gonna lose
